The overlapping light and shadow of yin and yang fell on the man, dividing him into light and dark sides.
Looking at the medicine delivered to his hand, the emotion in Huo Shenzhi's eyebrows dimmed.
Jiang Shulan said: "She trusts you very much. You give her the medicine and send her away. From now on, the mountains are high and the rivers are wide. She will never remember who you are anymore, nor will she remember the past five years. All of us no longer have to worry about anything. Without giving her medicine, you will fulfill your selfish desires and let her wander back and forth on the edge of life and death."
"Madam!" Kong Qing knelt on the ground and grabbed Jiang Shulan's dress.
The ink in Huo Shenzhi's eyes seemed to be still and thick, and his deep voice was cold and bone-chilling: "Mrs. Yun, do you think this king would do such a thing?"
That night, Jiang Shulan was suffering in her heart.
She knew that asking Huo Shenzhi to give up Yun Si was tantamount to asking him to give up his ambition to conquer the world.
She didn't know what was the right thing to do. She was really afraid that the unknown choice would harm Yun Si. How could she not know that her daughter's identity now brought a sick child to the world? At the beginning of Xizhou, the Yun family was part of the fuse, and Yun Si was the most critical link.
Now, the only person who can protect and help Yun Si is the person in front of her...
"Then agree to my three conditions. I know you will keep your promise, Prince Regent!"
She took a deep breath and was about to speak when she suddenly thought that she had used the same method that Jing Yun used to beg for candied haws on a haws of water to deal with others.
Before Master Jiu could respond, she spoke decisively: "First of all, no matter what happens in the future, it doesn't matter whether it is your fault or not, whether there is a secret or not, as long as it hurts my sister. heart, then use power and money to make it up to her, and let her go after making up for it. Compared with women, love is elusive, only money and power are the most real. I don’t care if she wants it or not, I want it for her shamelessly today. The woman is begging for mercy. Join hands with a man who seeks love and stability. If a man cannot give you these and can only cause harm to the world, then there is no need to be together!"
"Madam?" Kong Qing seemed to realize something and couldn't help shouting.
Jiang Shulan lowered her head and looked at Kong Qing and said, "Qing'er has been adopted as my adopted daughter long ago. Go get pen and ink to bear witness for your sister Yun Si and write this down."
Everyone knows that the three conditions proposed by Jiang Shulan are only more difficult than the last, and they are no less difficult than asking Master Jiu to feed Yun Si medicine.
"Second!" Jiang Shulan's face was solemn as never before: "Xiao Ziyi put something on her body. As long as she remembers it, her life will be in danger. It was so irritating that she remembered that I want the regent to remove the thing before it is removed. , stay away from my concubine. I want the regent to put my concubine first in every word and deed. Even if concubine is interested, you cannot respond at this time.
This is for her long-term consideration in the future, because the poison in Master Jiu has not been cleared up yet. If you have any shortcomings and you have not responded to him, she will not be too sentimental or nostalgic. They are both women. I know these feelings. I also know that the poison in Master Jiu was accumulated for Si'er, but now that the matter has come to this, as a mother, I can only make plans for my daughter's survival wholeheartedly. "
"third!"
Jiang Shulan closed her eyes and took a deep breath: "In the future, as long as Si'er is awake and doesn't want to be with you, you have to respond to whatever she says. Respect her wishes. If she wants to leave, you have to let her go. Leave. If you don't want to have anything to do with her life or death, you must completely break up with her."
"Only these three, no more. With these two choices, the regent can either give Si'er medicine with his own hands, so that she will never forget it. The medicine was given by the war slave at that time, and the effect was extremely significant. After taking it, she could Guaranteed for life. Or, the regent should make the final agreement."
The two choices seem to be comparable.
But there are many possibilities for the second option.
Jiang Shulan throws out one thing that is difficult for people to accept, and then comes up with another one that people can consider, so as to retreat to advance and find a way out for her daughter.
This is all she can do.
The written evidence was established in duplicate.
Jiang Shulan said: "This thing is useless to others, but it is useful to you, the Regent. There is no need for the Regent to reply now. Take it back and think about it."
This was the biggest concession and compromise she had ever made after talking to her two children and thinking about it.
It became cooler in the courtyard.
Kong Qing looked at Master Jiu who was leaving, then turned to ask Jiang Shulan: "Madam..."
Master Jiu didn't sign it quickly, he just left with the letter. No one knew what he was going to do.
"My child, you saw that I don't care anymore. I even asked people to find war slaves, and I didn't even have the heart to take Yun Si away. That's all, as a mother, that's enough for me."
Jiang Shulan stood up and left with the support of Granny Chang.
Back in the room, Jiang Shulan sat by the window, staring blankly at the candlelight.
Aunt Chang came closer with hot tea and said with a smile: "I know, Madam, you have put great thought into it."
Jiang Shulan was stunned, her painstaking efforts were evident, but she couldn't help showing hatred in her eyes: "I blame myself, and I blame Xiao Ziyi, the lunatic! Even if I die, why should I hurt my Si'er? Si'er doesn't owe him, so why is he wrong? Come with us! The human ethics barrier that has collapsed has finally been passed, and no one has criticized them for a word. Emperor Wu Zong has no real power. It seems that everything is getting better, but... Actually, sometimes I I just thought, people should not be too merciful. When I watched Xiao Ziyi die, or when I killed Yu Wanzhi with my own hands, everything would not be like this."
Such words are shocking to people.
Aunt Chang hurriedly tried to persuade her, but Jiang Shulan waved her hand: "I have accumulated good deeds in my life, but they are not as good as those I have done. The life and death of my grandson is unpredictable, and the death of my children is unpredictable. I don't know what the situation is now. The rest of the Yun family, left and right Maybe he was imprisoned by Emperor Ming and taken to the front of the battle line as a blackmail. Aunt Chang, what should I do..."
She was so worried that she felt breathless.
"My husband and son are working hard in the front, but I don't know anything behind the scenes. As a woman, all I can do is wait."
Wait for dawn.
But before dawn, news came from Xizhou.
In the royal study, Huo Shenzhi read the memorial and asked the person at the desk quietly: "What do you think, Your Majesty?"
Emperor Wu Zong took a file and trimmed his nails himself. When he heard this and thought of the "medicine" letter, he sneered: "You and I have been at odds with each other for a long time, don't keep up the appearance of harmony! All these years You don’t know what kind of life I’m living? Now ask me, don’t you think you are very, very, extremely, especially hypocritical?”
After hearing this, Huo Shenzhi put down the tea cup and nodded slightly: "Since you don't want dignity..."
